Let $[r]$ denote the greatest integer not exceeding $r$. The roots of the equation $3 x^2 + 6 x + 5 + \alpha (x^2 + 2 x + 2) = 0$ are complex numbers whenever $\alpha > L$ or $\alpha < M$. If $(L - M)$ is minimum,then the greatest value of $[r]$ such that $L y^2 + M y + r < 0$ for all $y \in R$ is:

  • A
    $-2$
  • B
    $-3$
  • C
    $-5$
  • D
    $-1$
